==Sigmund Freud==
===Development of the Term===
The term "[[narcissism]]" first appears in [[Freud]]'s [[Works of Sigmund Freud|work]] in 1910, but it is not until his [[work]] "[[Freud|On Narcissism: An Introduction]]"<ref>{{F}} "[[Works of Sigmund Freud|On Narcissism: An Introduction]]," 1914c. [[SE]] XIV, 69.</ref> that the [[concept]] begins to play a central [[role]] in [[psychoanalytic theory]].
'===Investment of the Libido in the Ego===From this point on, [[NarcissismFreud]]' is used by defines [[Sigmund Freudnarcissism]] to describe as the investment of [[libido]] in the [[ego]].The narcissistic stage of development inscribes the [[ego]] as an [[object]] of the libidinal economy.Lacan makes narcissism an even more central aspect of the human psyche, aligning and opposes it with what he terms the "imaginary order," one of the three major structures of the psyche (along with the Real and the symbolic order). to [[Lacanobject]] expands upon -[[Freudlove]]'s concept, linking it more explicitly with its namesake, the in which [[mythlibido]] of is invested in [[Narcissusobject]]s.
[[Narcissism]] has both an [[eroticism|erotic]] and an [[aggressivity|aggressive]] character.It is [[eroticism|erotic]] in that ===Birth of the [[subject]] is strongly attracted to the [[gestalt]] that is his [[image]].Ego===[[NarcissismLacan]] is the erotic attraction attributes great importance to the this [[specular imagephase]].Such attraction underlies the primary in [[identificationFreud]] by which 's work, since it clearly inscribes the [[ego]] is formed in the [[mirror stage]].It is as an [[aggressivity|aggressiveobject]] in that the 'wholeness' of the [[specular imagelibido|libidinal economy]], undermined by the uncoordinated disunity of the and [[subjectlinks]]’s the [[realbirth]] of the [[bodyego]], seems to threaten the [[subject]] with disintegration.The narcissism|narcissistic relation (with the [[specular imagestage]]) constitutes the of [[imaginary dimensiondevelopment]] of human relationships.<ref>S3, 92</ref>
Ideally, ===Narcissistic Stage of Development===[[Narcissism]] is different from the libido directs its energies to objects prior [[stage]] of [[autoeroticism]] (in which the [[ego]] does not [[exist]] as a [[unity]]), and only comes [[about]] when "object-libidoa new [[psychical]] [[action]]"), including eventually onegives birth to the [[ego]]. ==Jacques Lacan=====Myth of Narcissus===[[Lacan]] develops [[Freud]]'s love-objectconcept by linking it more explicitly with its namesake, the [[myth]] of [[Narcissus]]. However, The libido can also attach itself ===Identification with the Specular Image===[[Lacan]] thus defines [[narcissism]] as the erotic attraction to the [[specular image]]; this erotic relation underlies the primary [[identification]] by which the [[ego ("ego]] is formed in the [[mirror stage]]. ===Erotic-libido") Aggressive Character of Narcissism===[[Narcissism]] has both an [[erotic]] [[character]] and an [[aggressive]] character. It is erotic, as the myth of [[Narcissus]] shows, since the [[subject]] is strongly attracted to the exclusion [[gestalt]] that is his [[image]]. It is [[aggressive]], since the [[wholeness]] of the [[specular image]] contrasts with the uncoordinated disunity of external object-cathexesthe [[subject]]'s [[real]] [[body]], and thus seems to threaten the [[subject]] with [[fragmented body|disintegration]]. This situation leads===="Narcissistic Suicidal Aggression"====In "[[Lacan|Remarks on Psychic Sausality]], according to Freud"<ref>{{L}} "[[Work of Jacques Lacan|Propos sur la causalité psychique]]", in {{E}} [1946]. pp. 151-93</ref> [[Lacan]] coins the term "[[narcissism|narcissistic suicidal aggression]]" (''[[narcissism|aggression suicidaire narcissique]]'') to express the fact that the [[eroticism|erotic]]-[[aggressive]] character of the [[narcissistic behavior and ]] infatuation with the [[specular image]] can lead the [[subject]] to [[self]]-[[destruction]] (as the myth of [[Narcissus]] also illustrates).<ref>{{Ec}} p. 187; {{Ec}} p. 174</ref> ===Imaginary Dimension of Human Relationships===The [[narcissistic neuroses such as megalomania]] relation constitutes the [[imaginary]] [[dimension]] of [[human]] relationships.<ref>{{S3}} p.92</ref>
